Members melx Posted October 27, 2007 Members Share Posted October 27, 2007 this arrived this morning. first impresstions are that this need a fait bit of tweeking to get the best from it. I wasn't sure if I should put it before or after dirt, it seemed to work better after Big Muff, but seemed to track the notes a lot better clean. the knobs seem to have to be in 'the right place' for your guitar, there seems to be a sweet spot, that takes a bit of time to balance out with the 2 filter and blend knob, the sub switch just seems to add distortion when in the 'up' position...although looking at the manual is says 'should normally be down when used with guitar' so I won't touch that again. I need to spend a bit more time with this before I really know if it's any good or not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TELCO1 Posted October 27, 2007 Members Share Posted October 27, 2007 I've had mine for a week now and love it. I have the sub switch on because it needs to be to use the bass filter. My primary use is to to simulate a bass sound with my guitar which I record and loop. It requires some tweaking, but works great. Lawrie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members melx Posted October 27, 2007 Author Members Share Posted October 27, 2007 I've been playing a bit more with it...I'm loving it..although it's kinda confirmed what I always suspected, what I really want is a POG. I'll be hanging on to this though because it wasn't expensive (used ebay mint condition) and well....it's been discontinued in it's Muff Size box and I like big pedals!

Members only_shallow Posted October 27, 2007 Members Share Posted October 27, 2007 Hmm I wanted this pedal before, but then I never really needed an octave pedal. I'm definately anti POG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never played one, but my guess is that it's one of those pedals that grows on you over time. If you sell it off, you'll mention it in one of the "Which pedal do you regret selling?" threads in a couple of years. I'd like to compare it to the H.O.G. also and hear if there's much difference in the tone and tracking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bieke Posted October 27, 2007 Members Share Posted October 27, 2007 sold mine liked the sounds (especially the cheesy filtered ones) and the farty glitches but did not like the volume drop it was useless in the band situation, just did not cut through it sounded great in the loop of the Meatball though but when I got the Oxtron, I started neglecting the EHX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, i found that the tracking on mine wasnt that great. Traded it for an old OC-2 ('83, still says "octaver"), and its staying in the lineup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
